————————
Cette représentation féminine met en valeur l’image idéale de la femme Bamana. Elle est accentuée par les motifs couvrant le corps tels qu’ils ornaient autrefois le corps des adolescentes se préparant pour les danses.
La remarquable dynamique des formes ren-voie de manière saisissante au vocabulaire qui fonda le cubisme.
